I was discussing the famous American poet Robert Frost today in English Lit. A student said,"Oh, I've heard of him! Isn't he the guy who created Frosty the Snowman?" I'm not clever enough to make this stuff up. It's true. I think I actually told her that she may be referring to Jack Frost. She said, "Yeah, yeah, that's the one." An easy mistake to make.
I'm not sure whether to laugh or cry, but sometimes I feel real anxiety when I ponder the enormity of what my children don't know...and what I want to show them. So little time! Please help me remember to show them at least some Robert Frost before they hit high school.
